Standard Chartered Marathon 2009: Result and Plans for 2010

NAME: CHEW CHEE CHIN
EVENT: Full Marathon
DATE: December 6th, 2009
BIB/DIV: 25609 / M2024
TIME: 3h:44m:53s (gun) / 3h:44m:37s (net)

Statistic of the run
Avg time: 5:19/km (improved 13s)
Avg speed: 11.3km/hr (improved 0.5km/hr)
1st 10km: 5:07/km, 51mins 5sec
10-21km: 5:22/km, 59mins 37secs
21-30km: 5:26/km, 48mins 22secs
30-42km: 5:23/km, 1hr 5mins and 36sec

This is my new personal best for Standard Chartered Marathon. Next target timing should be 3:30. But find that running this timing will be really PAINFUL! Running at 5min/km pace or 49min 46s (50mins) for every 10km

Plans for 2010 Standard Chartered Marathon
I had decided not to run sundown Marathon due to the relapse of my ITB injury. Will build my base and speed throughout the year. Working with the Team to improve my 5km timing and work on my speed to 10km to get below 45mins. With that, hopefully can join CDO AHM team for their training, with the aim to hit below 1hr 40mins for 21km. AHM will be held around Aug/Sept. After AHM, will take a short break and start my training for Standard Chartered.

Will be looking at mainly track and tempo workout. Find that i did very little tempo for my marathons. Don't know how it will help to improve my runs. So will do more of it to try out. As for long runs. My plan is to keep in the 20-26km range, max maybe at 32km for 1 time.

Will wait till end of year and plan for my races for 2010.


Another PB
